Acoustic modeling can help evaluate expected sound-isolation performance, compare construction alternatives and develop practical remediation strategies before field work begins.
On-Site Acoustic Testing provides modeling and technical evaluation of walls, floor/ceiling assemblies, windows and other building elements for projects involving airborne sound isolation, impact sound and acoustical security.
Modeling Building Assemblies
Modeling can be used to compare proposed assemblies, evaluate changes in materials or construction, and investigate existing assemblies that are not achieving the required acoustic performance. Depending on the project, the analysis may consider partitions, floors, ceilings, glazing and relevant transmission paths associated with building services.
Design, Troubleshooting and Remediation
For new construction, modeling can support acoustical plan review and comparison of design alternatives. For existing construction, it can help identify practical modifications to improve sound isolation and guide field investigation or remediation.
Modeling and Field Testing
Modeled performance and laboratory ratings should not be treated as substitutes for measurements of the completed building. Where verification is required, OSAT can perform building-acoustics field testing to document the performance of the installed construction.
